/main

From Our World of Text Wiki

/main is a world created and managed by the user fp. Its concept is similar to that of the main page, but with a stronger focus on spam/grief prevention, script-prevention, and original user created art. /main has a lower rate limit which makes pasting text slower. fp keeps backups of /main so in the case of a grief attack, fp can roll back /main back to its original state.

Besides some basic anti-grief/spam measures, /main is pretty lenient on other user capabilities such as allowing users to change their cell colors (which is disabled on the main page).

To many OWoTers, /main is seen as a safe haven from the main page, and /main is a favorite world to many users.

A popular trend on /main is creating and showcasing stylized user created center consoles. The center console takes up the first 4 center tiles of the world. An Archive of these center consoles can be found on /mch_complete and /main_console_history.

You may also find many stickmen, spam machines, classes and mario/luigis on /main.{{subst:Worlds}}

Center Console

The center console is a square at the center of the world. Its design occasionally changes.

West Road

The West Road is a long road stretching from the center console out west into the void. Many OWoTers choose to make their art along this road because it has a lower likelihood of being griefed by spammers and bots (because the cursor moves left to right when typing).

East Road

The East Road is a long road stretching from the center console east towards the void.

South Road

A small road that branches off the East road.

Spam

You can often find art on /main of stickmen screaming “AAA” or spam technology which produces “AAA” spam.

Spam City

Spam city is located at X: -1000 Y: 0. The city is powered by spam.
